Title:

Conservation and function in the human genome

Abstract:

I will present a modern view of the human genome, particularly as it relates to gene regulation, which appears to be encoded by a vastly more complex genomic layer than we ever suspected. I will describe some of our own work that helps us appreciate the complexity and mysteries that make our genome such a fascinating research topic.
